since it wasnt 616 I didn't care. alrtnate character versions of characters including storm do nothing for me. i thought it was kinda funny actually lol. at least she got to shoot some lightning before being sent off lol

Being a Storm fan is suffering no matter the book. The heck did Storm do to anger every writer to deserve her constant mistreatment?

Finally more Molina art! It's only taken 10 issues.
Just keep Rachel in this hound suit. Best thing she ever wore, bad memories notwithstanding.

No. Rachel shouldn't regress back to the darkest times in her lifetime. She deserves to move on from that outfit permantly. It represents too much of her past and triggers ger PTSD tendencies and self-guilt.

Actually, the mess with Bunn, that I remember at least is that there were people complaining about him for not having any POC character on his X-Men Blue cast. He felt like they were attacking him and calling a racist and AFAIK never came back here after that.

Seeing Molina's art here just makes me sad we had to put up with the lackluster fill-in artists since his last issue / #3. Julian Lopez was great, though; pity he and Molina couldn't alternate arcs.

She got over her issues before. It's time for her to get over them again and get back in that spiky gimp suit.

Yes, that's what I was referring to.

Reading the last three pages of the issue with Tyke's speech about how the adult versions went wrong. I'm wondering if that's the closest we'll ever see to Marvel admitting they painted themselves into a corner with the OG x-men. It kinda comes off that way when you read it realizing the x-office signed off on all of this.

No.
The suit represents regression and a reminder of her self-guilt.
Bdsm suit also has no place in the role of a public heroine. Rachel is trying to change, not be trapped by her past.
The gimp suit also fetishsizes Rachel, a tortured/brutalized PTSD victim

Ah, well... Here she goes again!
